In a detailed evaluation scheme, all defined functional and non-functional requirements are checked and evaluated for fulfilment of target and utility value.

On the occasion of the evaluation, various commercial as well as open source solutions are considered and examined for their suitability, costs and, above all, future viability. As a result of the preliminary study, solution variants with the top three candidates from the evaluation as well as a target architecture will be presented to the client as a basis for decision-making. Sly AG will also continue to be available in an advisory capacity during the introduction and continuous optimisation of the new search engine.
